Doomworld Mega Project

The Doomworld Mega Project (or DMP) is a continuous annual mapping project held at Doomworld forums (DMP2023 is held at Doomer Boards). This is a community project where everyone can submit a level by following the established rules (except for DMP2019). Rules change from year to year, though these changes became more drastic from DMP2018 onwards. The project was created by TimeOfDeath, who also led most of its iterations. As of June 2023, the series has eleven finished projects.

Concept
TimeOfDeath got the inspiration for the Doomworld Mega Project when he was chronologically playing through thousands of WADs from the /idgames archive. He especially liked playing single-level WADs because they allowed him to enjoy the unique style of different mappers. And that is what ultimately became the DMP - a compilation of levels created by different mappers, where everyone can express themselves. TimeOfDeath also points out that DMP was never meant to be a project for beginner mappers, since almost no feedback is provided.
